Description

Dogtopia, the nation’s leading dog daycare, boarding and spa facility, will debut a new location in Blackhawk on August 30. Situated at 3630 Blackhawk Plaza Cir., Dogtopia of Blackhawk is welcoming the Danville community along with all furry family members to enjoy the benefits of dog daycare. The new Dogtopia location is owned by Joe Castorena. Working at high-profile tech companies in Silicon Valley such as Yahoo, EBay and Google for over 20 years, Castorena decided to dive into the world of franchising and become a business owner himself. As a pet-lover and dog day-care customer himself, Castorena was immediately drawn to Dogtopia’s brand mission and use of high-tech construction. After the success of opening his first Dogtopia location in Dublin, Castorena now hopes to create another sense of community for local families in the Danville community. “From my past experiences working at Google, I had a close insight on what it takes to be a top-notch brand,” said Castorena. "Dogtopia offers a fresh, new concept for pet owners who treat their dogs like true members of the family. When I considered the industry-leading facility, safety, staff training, and the brand itself, opening a new Dogtopia was a no-brainer.” Offering personalized care for Danville pups in a fun, safe and comfortable environment, Dogtopia sets the industry standard among dog daycares with its three key benefits: education, exercise and socialization. To foster complete transparency, pet parents are walked through a detailed facility tour while their furry children are evaluated for Dogtopia’s open-play environment. Dogtopia employs webcam technology in each playroom that allows pet parents to check on their pups from anywhere. Dogtopia’s environment allows dogs to feel comfortable, enjoy plenty of playtime and exercise, and the various playrooms offer fun for dogs of similar size and temperament. Each playroom has compressed rubber flooring to ease joints, prevent slipping and promote safer play. Dogtopia gives each dog an opportunity to socialize and stay active throughout the day in an environment that is safe and clean, which can ease their separation anxiety and give pet parents peace of mind. Alongside providing quality care in a healthy, safe and fun environment for local pups, Dogtopia launched the Dogtopia Foundation with the noble cause to enable dogs to positively change our world. The Foundation funds programs focused around three worthy causes: Services Dogs for Veterans, Youth Literacy Programs and Employment Initiatives for Adults with Autism. One hundred percent of funds raised are donated directly to supported organizations. To learn more, visit www.dogtopiafoundation.org. Dogtopia of Blackhawk is open from 7 a.m. – 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Sunday.
